I don't understand how this ruins the game? By far this is in my opinion the most realistic NHL since like NHL 12 haha if you can't play D then these goals are gonna go in on you. With the improved hitting, skating and player control, if you aren't bad at the game and know what you're doing then you wouldn't have to worry. I enjoyed every second of the beta, I think they improved so many games, I saw less skill zone, and I even punished people playing skill zone by dumping and chasing. I mean that shit actually works, a hockey tactic that actually works in an EA game like cmon hahaha the game is gonna be sick, learn hockey and you won't have a problem dominating
It's not a problem for me if someone will score like he do. But it's embarrassing when everyone in hut tryin' to score by slap shot and do it all the time ( in 16 one timers) I can loose but with opponent who's got some skills, not a people who only skate by one player with stick left or right and lookin' for pass to one timer doin' a thousand cirles . nhl 17 its ok for me because i prefer sim play and i like trying to score by slap or deflection, but not 2m in front of goal
Agree. They just have to tone down the board play, poke check, and how easy it is to knock bigger players off the puck. They also need to improve how the puck bounces off the players stick even on the softest passes, and make the turning/puck pickups better. Aside from that, everything seems fine
Right? Nothing bothers me more than people who call the game shit just for the sake of it. It's like every goal is called a glitch goal. I guarantee if EA fixed these "glitch goals" then people would complain that goalies are too good. Obviously the game isn't perfect but this is the best game yet. People who say it's the same thing are idiots. You can't expect them to make drastic changes every year.
I'm absolutely loving this game, I sucked at 17 before because my camera switched to dynamic medium, once I got it to dynamic high it was GG to everyone I played.
Hey bacon another good to score is if your behind and hold a backhand or forehand stride and go to the front of the net and wait until your in front then fire and goes in everytime well as least for me
nice video.. I was wondering why I cant score those short side wristers anymore. And every time a dude skates across the goalies face its an automatic goal. The money breakaway move for me is letting go of the Left stick and sliding booth sticks to one side (stride deke) and usually gives enough open net to not even need to roof it
Rookie is too easy now. I scored 15 points the other day scoring every time by skating past the goalie from my right side and writing it in on the left, but in pro I can't score more than 1 or two at most. any tips. will this slaps hot work in pro?
The slapshot works because of the new shoulder save goalie mechanics slapshot in this game are normally high so the goalie drops and tries to use the shoulder to stop the shot
+Demolition D No, a glitch means that there's a mistake in the coding. EA is purposely programming the goalies to make some mistakes so that you can score. That being said I do wish that EA would lower the accuracy of slap shots in order to lower the chances of scoring slappers which would make the game more realistic.
I don't understand this game its weird . As before I was on such a bad run couldn't win a game to save myself. But now eventually I'm on a winning run but I've not changed anythg or playing any better but keep on winning. I just don't get it
Actually I think they are not OP but they finally did make ratings count, so off course If you got 88+ rating players on your team then you are scoring on slap shots way more easier. Like this year is first year when skating rating does count and you can over skate anyone with lower rating.
In the beta, I've noticed that goalies will give up a lot more rebounds in any shot, created more chances. Also, I agree with that one-t from the point, absolute cheese
imo it's literal fucking AIDS holy shit I literally haven't played a game without someone fucking mashing RB the entire game. It genuinely makes me upset how fucking broken it is and how little penalties are called for it
Have you seen eashl? That has been changed dramatically. Draft champions is also coming out in the main game. Hut now has synergies and sets. This is a major change all the way around unlike madden 17.
You should do a video on how not to get scored on twice in about 30 seconds in the last minute. (Had that happen to me today and I lost 4-3, when I was originally leading 3-1.
They need to nerf the slap shot a little bit, as even if the goalie saves it, he will be stunned for 3-5 seconds it seems making it easy to get the goal of the rebound. Also goalies need to be able to stop breakways at least half of the time. Maybe have 3-4 different methods a goalie can do on a breakaway, so that you need to memorize more than the left right motion to score. You would actually need to look at the goalie to see what he is doing, then use the correct move to put it in.
For everyone complaining about glitch goals, I will settle all them here - post to post (especially on faceoff pushes) - pull back wristers up close - forehand backhand breakaway (this is the only acceptable one to do) - Toe drag behind the net into slot, then backhand - Backskating slapshot upclose - Toe drag backhand on breakaway right in front of goalie with player that has 84+ hands The rest are normal ways to score, all above is just a trashy way to score.
AQ-Productions From the side of the net it is, but if it's on a breakaway, you have to time it right in front for it to work. It's the only glitch goal with somewhat skill.
+Edo Madara nah I've heard from many people who play those they are more like sim. This year NHL really feels arcade as opposed to the others who pull in way more money.
for some reason this year I cannot get the goalie to bite at all no matter what I try on breakaways. they kinda just sit there and don't bite for anything for me
Bacon could just say that anything is the best way to score lmao. He could just go "BEST WAY TO SCORE IS A SPINAROUND BACKHANDER!" And everyone will be spinning backhanders lmao "this is the year of the backhander"
I really don't like this game. Feels like you can't control the players properly. Idk how many times there is a shitshow where players are circling the puck and they just don't pick it up on their stick. I think they tried to make it too realistic and it lost some jam.
OK, I am annoyed about what you said about slapshots in NHL 17. For me NHL 16 was the year of the slapshot, not the cross crease. And I still do the slapshots in NHL 17. Slapshots are my fav shots and when they started to go in almost everytime in NHL 16 I have just continued to do it. So it seems it is still intact in 17 ;) Maybe you just didn't do enough of em in NHL 16. That lefthanded player coming to the goal from th eleft side shortside snipe almost never worked for me, but a slapshot from the faceoff dot went in shortsde just fine in NHL 16 :D
Ive only lost one game in online play so far, but 90% of the goals I've given up have been slap shots. More than half of those goals have been slap shots from the blue line... Slappers should be a good way to score, but they shouldn't have buffed it to where it goes in at such a ridiculous rate
Hey, Bacon! Is there a chance that I can play you one day without having to randomly finding you in a HUT game. I am only a Div 5 on HUT on NHL 16. I have a good team, it's just my skill is too bad to get past it. I really want to play you once. Can we please just play a friendly game one day?? I have the PS4 too. I always play NHL 16 because I wasn't a big fan of the NHL 17 beta so that's why I'm pre ordering the fully game. I hope to play you soon!
+Brennan Ruckle I have a good roster, it's just about everyone I face someone in game they find ways to get lucky goal and I can't even get actual good goals or even a lucky goal
Nice video Bacon, but Yes, it´s easy way to score if you have very good player(s), but I play HUT only 2 weeks and I don´t have good players I have bad players and it´s harder to score with my players. But very good video, It helps me a lot :)
that's what usually happen when a goalie drops in butterfly before the shot is taken with a dude taking a clapper from the slot top cheese but people who never played hockey wouldn't know that lol
I don't know what I miss more, Harambe, or the old bacon slapshot snipe goal. :(
"OMA GERDDDD Bacon, You Ruined the Game by showing us how you score in this Game" XD Have fun everyone!
Well Bacon, someone was going to do it. Glad it's you!
Yup... I also have a month to fill between the beta and the release of the full game. Pacing ourselves.
+BaconCountry hi.
WOOOOOWWWW Bacon, way to ruin the whole game for every one ;) These People...
YEAR OF THE FAIR SHOT!
Holy shit the return of the bacon slapper
I don't understand how this ruins the game? By far this is in my opinion the most realistic NHL since like NHL 12 haha if you can't play D then these goals are gonna go in on you.

I mean that shit actually works, a hockey tactic that actually works in an EA game like cmon hahaha the game is gonna be sick, learn hockey and you won't have a problem dominating
yeah the game has some problems but it's actually really good this year
Agreed so much.
It's not a problem for me if someone will score like he do. But it's embarrassing when everyone in hut tryin' to score by slap shot and do it all the time ( in 16 one timers) I can loose but with opponent who's got some skills, not a people who only skate by one player with stick left or right and lookin' for pass to one timer doin' a thousand cirles . nhl 17 its ok for me because i prefer sim play and i like trying to score by slap or deflection, but not 2m in front of goal

People who say it's the same thing are idiots. You can't expect them to make drastic changes every year.
2:49 Quits when down by only 2 goals, barely halfway through the game
Cause he knows theres no point of playing a cheeser like bacon because thats all hes gonna do..Glitch!
It's not glitch when opponent is bad at defense..
+Basi it's not a glitch it's just exploiting a certain shot that has a way higher % to go in, dumbass.
***** He wasn't
+Basi So if i get a breakaway and i do the same move everytime and it works you are telling me thats a glitch goal?
I'm absolutely loving this game, I sucked at 17 before because my camera switched to dynamic medium, once I got it to dynamic high it was GG to everyone I played.
Hey bacon another good to score is if your behind and hold a backhand or forehand stride and go to the front of the net and wait until your in front then fire and goes in everytime well as least for me
nice video.. I was wondering why I cant score those short side wristers anymore. And every time a dude skates across the goalies face its an automatic goal.
The money breakaway move for me is letting go of the Left stick and sliding booth sticks to one side (stride deke) and usually gives enough open net to not even need to roof it
2:09 How can u make these kind of faceoffs? Where the other guy skates to the puck?
Reminds me of NHL 2002 for the gameboy advance SP. There used to be a high slot slapper glitch goal that would go in every time.
Rookie is too easy now. I scored 15 points the other day scoring every time by skating past the goalie from my right side and writing it in on the left, but in pro I can't score more than 1 or two at most. any tips. will this slaps hot work in pro?
and how do you perform a best slapshot ? I have multiple times that I want to launch a shot and the player misses the puck.
Great video. Will use in my be a pro. I'm in ohl and cant access Gatorade performance center to practice. Can anyone help with that?
The slapshot works because of the new shoulder save goalie mechanics slapshot in this game are normally high so the goalie drops and tries to use the shoulder to stop the shot
It's 3 in the morning, is bacon Jr. Keeping you up?
hes got a kid?
+BradAlberts or do u mean his dick?
+BradAlberts he has a kid
+BradAlberts he gots a kid
+BradAlberts you have been here for a long time
If I'm correct this was recorded in the beta, has anything changed to the full release of this game
in video whats the skill and type? superstar & hardcore simulation?
I'm curious about the goalie stances. do they affect the way a goalie plays? or even how you should be playing against them?
The goalies are supposed to make more realistic saves, but yes they're actual strengths and weaknesses in real life will be the same on the game.
people say glitch goals and shit but how else are you supposed to score
Every goal is a glitch of ya think about it the goalie has to make a mistake for the puck to go in
+Demolition D No, a glitch means that there's a mistake in the coding. EA is purposely programming the goalies to make some mistakes so that you can score. That being said I do wish that EA would lower the accuracy of slap shots in order to lower the chances of scoring slappers which would make the game more realistic.
+adrowsell Or even just make the goalies not die when they get hit by a slap shot.
I just control the goalie now for every shot.
Breakaways work a lot, especially backhand forehand and then back
+BaconCountry actually in NHL 02 and 03 a lot of slapshots used to go in
Great video as always Bacon!
Is this on beginner? I can barely get shots on goal on pro this year. Impossible to score
I've been playing NHL on and off for years and I always rely on my one-timers. Works just about on every chance.
You have Ovechkin in Redwings??
I don't understand this game its weird . As before I was on such a bad run couldn't win a game to save myself. But now eventually I'm on a winning run but I've not changed anythg or playing any better but keep on winning. I just don't get it
Helped my game so much winning games!
Love you Bacon ! Thanks for those tips ! :)
Hey Bacon! How is Bacon Jr. doin'?
Actually I think they are not OP but they finally did make ratings count, so off course If you got 88+ rating players on your team then you are scoring on slap shots way more easier. Like this year is first year when skating rating does count and you can over skate anyone with lower rating.
What button do you use to celebrate
Try when your on a 2 on 1, toe drag and go short side! Works for me
harder to get the pass through? interceptions already needed to be toned down.
rt
why do Nazis need justice? you still have years left to repent.
you need to revisit history, you've been lied to
I would love to use these but all people is spam the poke button and you lose the puck intsantly but if you do it you get a tripping penalty
how dies he get that clap bomb top shelf from the poi t every time?
how do you do that celebration at 34 seconds on ps4 can someone please tell me
I havent seen any of that stick work in front of the net that they were preaching about in the trailers
I have, it is great, it stops people from continuously go for one timers because they don't have anyone to pass it to
That Bacon Slapshot at the end... oh man, I want that to be back.
lol vid at 3 am and the day after the beta closed, love the content bacon keep it up!
it didn't close..... they extended it until the 8th....
+JogaBonitoOfFifa no way
What camera were u using +baconcountry
i mean camera angle in game
No bacon=No skillzone! Before bacon was on yt there used to be no skillzone.
No Label for these players..... but they were there - I just made you see the light kid. see the light!
+BaconCountry hey why u block me on twitter i didnt spam you i just wrote what i saw thts. take ur ball home pal . lol
+BaconCountry There was but not as much. You ruined hut
+BaconCountry Don't call me a kid when your voice sounds like one
Before Basi there used to be commas.
The good thing is you need to be very aggressive on the player with the puck, you need to go up to the point and block shots.
Nice glitch goals bacon!
Watch your use of the G word, there are children here
+Cabry In nhl 17 goals are scored in the slot are like 90%-100% successful, in the nhl its like 30%-50%
+Basi If you practice your defense as much as you are crying here, maybe you could be a good player
+Basi holy shit u just got roasted
+Makecloridinium hahahah are you on ps or xb, what your record?
I got a hat trick with Duncan Keith all on slab shot after face offs off the drop in the opponent’s zone
I used the slappers since 15 and its been just as good
In the beta, I've noticed that goalies will give up a lot more rebounds in any shot, created more chances. Also, I agree with that one-t from the point, absolute cheese
thoughts on that poke check cheese?
imo it's literal fucking AIDS holy shit I literally haven't played a game without someone fucking mashing RB the entire game. It genuinely makes me upset how fucking broken it is and how little penalties are called for it
Is this game any good!? is it worth to buy the ps4 for this game ?
How can i get a NHL 2K17? Which platform Origin? Steam? Which one ??
It's back the bacoooon slapa
Gotta love that music
Low shot from the point goes in to it always hits a stick or body and goes in
very helpful, thanks!
Slappers have to be toned down a bit. Tired of getting beat by an unscreened slap shot from just inside the blue line.
Thnx for saving my $$, I'll get this NHL 16.5 when it goes on sale. Nice moves, great vid!
It's still NHL 13.5
Have you seen eashl? That has been changed dramatically. Draft champions is also coming out in the main game. Hut now has synergies and sets. This is a major change all the way around unlike madden 17.
whats the best team in nhl 17?
You should do a video on how not to get scored on twice in about 30 seconds in the last minute. (Had that happen to me today and I lost 4-3, when I was originally leading 3-1.
Does he play hockey himself?
how is checking in nhl 17 please answer
They need to nerf the slap shot a little bit, as even if the goalie saves it, he will be stunned for 3-5 seconds it seems making it easy to get the goal of the rebound. Also goalies need to be able to stop breakways at least half of the time.

You would actually need to look at the goalie to see what he is doing, then use the correct move to put it in.
If you hold RT / R2 when you shoot, it will make the computer deflect it
Why are you showing game clips against Saad? Anybody can score on Saad.....
+Tiny Tuck who the fuck cares?
eh douglas did i ask u lol are u bacon side piece lol jkjk nothing against u bacon but really douglas who ask u to talk eh shhh
^This kid actually removed his coment hahahaha
Its WAYYYY to easy to score in this game, every slap shot and wrist near side go in... better change it for full release
+Owen Morgan Not at all, he actually is fucking right, goalies allow 5 goals on 15-20 shots...
Guillaume Parr if you change the skill level they dont even go to goal... FP
What level are you playing on??? I'm on Pro level and that slop never goes in.
For everyone complaining about glitch goals, I will settle all them here
- post to post (especially on faceoff pushes)
- pull back wristers up close
- forehand backhand breakaway (this is the only acceptable one to do)
- Toe drag behind the net into slot, then backhand
- Backskating slapshot upclose
- Toe drag backhand on breakaway right in front of goalie with player that has 84+ hands
The rest are normal ways to score, all above is just a trashy way to score.
yup i never glitch goal it takes the fun away
Toe drag isn't that good
AQ-Productions From the side of the net it is, but if it's on a breakaway, you have to time it right in front for it to work. It's the only glitch goal with somewhat skill.
1:25 you can see the player going through the ref
Not the first time in the franchise. Slapper outperformed one-timers in NHL96 on Megadrive/Genesis. o_o
Exactly why this years game seems arcade as fuck and less of a simulation. It's bs
+Brennan Ruckle Because it's Ea, EA Always make arcade gameplay example FIFA and Madden are soo Arcade
+Edo Madara nah I've heard from many people who play those they are more like sim. This year NHL really feels arcade as opposed to the others who pull in way more money.
for some reason this year I cannot get the goalie to bite at all no matter what I try on breakaways. they kinda just sit there and don't bite for anything for me
Bacon could just say that anything is the best way to score lmao. He could just go "BEST WAY TO SCORE IS A SPINAROUND BACKHANDER!" And everyone will be spinning backhanders lmao "this is the year of the backhander"
Thanks for the tips bud. Most of this is common sense but good to know that slap shots are cheese this year.
Bacon you forgot about the toe drag snipe.
Genuine hockey plays leading to goals irl lead to goals in a game too? Color me shocked!
The slapper seems way too OP though.
This helps, but most of my shots end up go feet wide when I try to aim.
*end up going*
YEAR OF THE FAIR SHOT!
I really don't like this game. Feels like you can't control the players properly. Idk how many times there is a shitshow where players are circling the puck and they just don't pick it up on their stick. I think they tried to make it too realistic and it lost some jam.
The game looks great, I really want them to change how guys dive 3 feet in the air when they're tripped though...
Do a video about the Calgary Flames
I want another one of tips but with CALGARY FLAMES
What do you mean? In NHL 2000 you could score every time by just crossing the blue line with a winger and slapshot into goal.
OK, I am annoyed about what you said about slapshots in NHL 17. For me NHL 16 was the year of the slapshot, not the cross crease. And I still do the slapshots in NHL 17. Slapshots are my fav shots and when they started to go in almost everytime in NHL 16 I have just continued to do it. So it seems it is still intact in 17 ;) Maybe you just didn't do enough of em in NHL 16. That lefthanded player coming to the goal from th eleft side shortside snipe almost never worked for me, but a slapshot from the faceoff dot went in shortsde just fine in NHL 16 :D
btw, how u can switch to goalie?
L1 + X / LB + A
+Mikku M ohh, thanks :)
Is ice tilt in?
Its always in
Last time I was this early KD was on OKC
Ive only lost one game in online play so far, but 90% of the goals I've given up have been slap shots. More than half of those goals have been slap shots from the blue line... Slappers should be a good way to score, but they shouldn't have buffed it to where it goes in at such a ridiculous rate
Hey, Bacon! Is there a chance that I can play you one day without having to randomly finding you in a HUT game. I am only a Div 5 on HUT on NHL 16. I have a good team, it's just my skill is too bad to get past it. I really want to play you once. Can we please just play a friendly game one day?? I have the PS4 too.

I'm div 1, #85 in the world on HUT in 16.
+Brennan Ruckle I have a good roster, it's just about everyone I face someone in game they find ways to get lucky goal and I can't even get actual good goals or even a lucky goal
Short sides have been going in fine for me
Go on ultimate team then to my collection go to the end and coaches and read the comment it says
slapshots will be decreseded and there will be onetimer and cheat snipe
damn. 3:00 am video. what's going on bacon hahaha
Nice video Bacon, but Yes, it´s easy way to score if you have very good player(s), but I play HUT only 2 weeks and I don´t have good players I have bad players and it´s harder to score with my players. But very good video, It helps me a lot :)
+BaconCountry 3:58 omg Saad finally scored on you!!
Tips happen all the time in the beta, don't really need much luck for that.
Sorry I just need to say you are awesome at this game
NHL 17= NHL 16😂😂💯
the bacon slappas back boys
love late uploads.
that's what usually happen when a goalie drops in butterfly before the shot is taken with a dude taking a clapper from the slot top cheese but people who never played hockey wouldn't know that lol
R u from Detroit I'm not creepy I just wanna know if u like the wings cuz I do
In my opinion I thought the slapshot was always good in the beta/demo but when the actual game is out its not as good
that slapper forces them to defend more imo
What the hell is that song during the last couple of seconds? :D B-b-Bacon, b-b-b-Bacon😂
The old bacon snapshot snipe goal theme song from nhl 14
The old bacon snapshot snipe goal theme song from nhl 14
The bacon sizzle. He used to play it a lot in his vids, every time he scored a bacon slapped
I hope packs are cheap when the game comes out, makes it so much better.
I just want the returning bonus packs.
Yes, but remember that this is EA.
